ok, i'm gonna get hated on, but lets get the truth out... i'm callin bullshit on the aus people, to put it simply... Why would anyone look for a club thats "suits" them. If there were only 4 trucks there, and they were all friends they'd be a club. doesnt mean they can be friends with all the american clubs! The real reason people who want to get into a big club like, st, nr, nc, ra, is because that logo on your back window comes with alot of exposure. I'm only talkin about people who dont know anyone in the club, and are tryin to join. Its all good if you meet people at a show and become friends, but the real minitruckin happens in the garage with your "club"
The reason why you look for a club that suits you is because starting your own club is hard work. Sometimes it easier to just "get in where you fit in!!!"
All the big clubs are different in their own way. If you really sit back and analyze them youll notice this. So i can imagine how somebody would sit back, read the mags, watch the videos and see that they might fit in with a certain group of people. Then you move on to the next part and thats contacting those individuals to see if you click. It's obviously a lot more complicated but you catch my drift.
Since im the founder of I get a lot of people who have come to me for advice as to what it takes to get your club off the ground. I know what it takes and it's not for everybody. That doesnt make them less of a minitrucker, they just have different priorities. As far as im concerned i dont care what club people join as long as they are a part of our culture. Even the lone wolf guys, the guys, i respect them for doing their thing.
I'm a club kind of guy, and I enjoy being a part of a big club, thats how i roll.
peace.

ok, im gonna add my 2 cents...
I think we are all looking at this in the wrong way. I dont mean this to be offensive to national clubs in anyway, so please hear me out on this. I believe that you shouldnt base any type of liking to a club because you think that group of people looks "cool" or you think the name is neat. To me that means you are looking at it all wrong. I have been a memeber of a local group called The Family for 5 years. It took me 5 years to "petition" if you will, to become a respected member of the club. That might not mean anything to anyone else, but to me its the greatest feeling in the world to have friends that I can consider family for more reasons then just trucks. I think that all of the people that want to join these large clubs need to stop and think of the reasons you are wanting to join. To say you are in a club just for the name means you are in it for all the wrong reasons. If you want to be a part of something, a group that shares our same intrests, then look around you, go to shows, get together with your fellow minitruckers and have a good time. Thats how members should be found in my opinion, and some clubs feel the same way. To me, Minitruckin is one giant club, it doesnt matter what name you represent or club you roll with, we are all family.
Once again, I did not mean this in offense to any large club at all, I think its awesome to have close friends all over the nation. We have a member in Louisville, KY and its awesome to be able to go to KY and hang out, I can only imagine what its like on a larger scale.

Agreed. For instance....last night all the *NR* Maryland guys rolled out to the Cali-Style Toy Drive. Being there as a part of a large club was just an awsome feeling. not only that but the guys in our chapter are like family to me. they are a great bunch of people. for Somebody to sit behind a computer and say that we are in it for the sticker has no idea what he is talking about. IS my family. And there is nothing better than family

Dude to clarify my comments I was NOT trying to badmouth ANY club - nor the partitioning members or club members in Australia - I was sharing what I've heard being said - a lot.
Ginger man you know me better then that.And you know I never said anything about you bailing on your clubs...
Ernie (baggedMITSU), Mike (S10All422S) please re-read my original comments this was not an attack on either of your clubs - I think they are both great clubs and infact deserve and do get my respect.
Anyway I'm sharing an opinion that
